GRAHAM, N. 0., JAN. 5, 1928.
Other automobile manufacturers
of well known and popular makes
are coming out with new styles and
designs, but Ford told the public
lie that he was coming out with new
models months ahead. Thus he
cornered the public interest and got
many paces ahead of the other fel
lows, regardless of whether they
S have put out a superior prodnct or
not.
The treasury department at
Washington has just announced
that the public debt during 1927,
was reduced 81,038,312,000, leav
ing 818,036,000,000 on January 1st.
Since the peak in 1919 the debt has
been reduced 88,560,000,000, repre
senting an annual interest saving
of 8342,000,000. All theee are in
comprehensible sums, and reduction
is nothing less than a marvel notwith
standing the immense sums, stag
gering in proportions, expended for
government operating expenses.
The fourth annual Newspaper In
stitute will be held at Chapel Hill
on next Wednesday, Thursday and
Friday?11th, 12th and 13th. For
this occasion, editors, publishers
and managers of newspapers have
been assigned different phases of
newspaper work for discussion.
The speakers are selected as near
experts along the lines which.have
been assigned them. They should
be able to tell their brethren much
that would be helpful in mak
ing better papers?both for the
clientele and the financial advance
ment of tho publications.
Encouraged by the fact, no doubt,
that six months-ago the State Wage
and Salary Commission upon re
quest gave highway employees a
substantial increase in salaries, 336
employees in other State depart
ments asked for an increase in sal
ary. The Commission saw fit to re
fuse all the applications for increas
ed pay, and at the same time recom
mended that the departments reduce
the number on their pay-rolls in
favor of efficiency. No doubt the
Commission acted wisely, for it is
probable there are not a few who
do not earn their pay and perform
inefficient service. Those who strive
and do good work should be well
pud.
